Outdoor
Service Area
 Before DD documents are prepared, the design team and the Office of Waste Reduction and
Recycling meet to discuss outdoor service area requirements and equipment to be used.

Include specification section 02475 with any relevant site or space planning requirements for this
project

Include specification section 11170 listing specifications, installation information, and suppliers for
